I was watching some horrible gameshow on the WB just the other day and
after it was over I was going to turn off the TV but decided not to for
some strange reason. What came on next was Wiseguy which I had no clue
he was in. He played Winston McQuay,rich owner of a record company. The
best part however was when he was talking to a character named Eddie
Tempest and when Eddie got up to storm out Timmy went "Eddie!" just like
he did in Rocky. Ah well, I guess that's the curse of being RHPS
addicted: you find Rocky in everything.

Yeah like I saw an old Gary Shandling show with Jessica Harper as his
wife and some crazyguynamed Brad kidnapped her and imprisoned her
underneath the audience. At one point she says "Oh Brad" and it's just
like in Shock Treatment after she wakes up from "Lookin for Trade"

Is it "WE" find it, or the actors can't escape it. I.E. Susan Sarandon on
Sesame Street, goes on a date withTthe Count... it's raining and they are
going to a castle (it's the counts castle, but he doesn't tell her that). The
kid message of it is that The Count counts how many times he knocks on the
door before someone answers, but the adult message...

OR... The Hunger with David Bowie (heavy sigh), Katherine Denouv, Susan, and
Cliff De Young. Susan and Cliff are married. How twisted is that?!

Actually, that Sesame Street skit with Susan Sarandon and the Count was
intentionally meant to parody Rocky Horror. This is from a reliable
source, so trust me on this one. :)

See. now these two are direct references involving actual actors from Rocky
and Shock. It's when you see a red haired brit woman in a Jackie Chan
movie say, "Wait... I can explain." and instantly, without thinking, you
blurt out, "It better be good. You got shot last week."
